Where do over 55's buy their clothes?

We're not one thing. What did you used to like and what is it that you're wanting to change?

What size are you?

Yes it depends on your size really. But for me it’s Uniqlo I absolutely love it

M&S
Zara
Me&Em
Net a Porte
Adanola (eftp)
Gymshark
H&M
Alo
Asos
Reiss
Selfridges
Mango
And Other Stories
Liberty

and whoever else grabs my attention

I'm 55. Next,, asda,,, tesco,, mns but also primark..
If I had more money, probably say john lewis as the brands are nicer.
Matalan had some lovely stuff in the summer ...

Agnes B, comptoir des cotonniers, Marimekko, Joseph and Paul Smith. Mainly in sales and via eBay.

M&S are really good these days but could still use more natural fibres. I think you’re right to check out a few style bloggers and use Pinterest to find looks you like. M&S do great jeans. The patch pockets flares are so good in indigo - Get some before they sell out! (And get your staff discount ;-)

It's not my favourite but I have quite a lot of their stuff, especially black dresses. I have quite a few basics from there.

My autumn look is shaping up to be my favourite Lanx boots a black midi full skirt with either peter pan collars or slouch jumpers, that seems to have been my go to on cooler days recently or trousers and matching no sleeve top with my doc marten sandals.

Im 61 so well over 55

Useful blogs I find are

Have useful styling tips

M&S, Mango, Hobbs mainly

I’m 54 so a bit out of range but throwing it out there anyway - Free People, Arket, Jigsaw, Finisterre, Uniqlo, Wrap London, Sweaty Betty

55, size 16 and fairly informal.
Tu, Toast, Fatface, Plumo, Komodo, M&S, Acai, Jigsaw, George, Crew Clothing, Levi’s (but not jeans, none fit!), Gap @ Next, Land’s End, Hush …. I don’t have a single “go to”, although it used to be Espirit (RIP) and Boden before they went weird and I was slimmer!

I’m a 57 year old size 16 apple with broad shoulders. I find Whistles do stuff that works for me. I do use John Lewis a fair bit. In theory I like ‘& other stories’ but their stuff rarely fits me. I bought a jacket from Uniqlo the other day. I’m afraid I avoid Seasalt and Fat Face and White Stuff like the plague, I look terrible in all of that stuff. When I’m feeling flush the occasional Cos piece is nice.

Zara and Marks and Spencer are my go to for clothes.. occasionally the odd item in new look if I’m in town and I’ve bought a few items from Asos their own brand which were nice enough
Next is not my style at all I always have to size down I. bought a T-shirt recently that looked so nice in the shop but not nice on it was too loose around the neckline and that was a size down..nearly forgot Stradivarius are ok for some things and I got a lovely dress and trench jacket from there recently I’m also 57

I'm 53, size 16, sometimes a 14 or 12 on top half. Mainly Toast, Hush, Free People, Cos and ASOS. Basics from M & S. Odd supermarket bits and bobs if really good.

Right now, I’m wearing black stonewash slim Zara jeans, a grey Primark T shirt and a dark and light grey striped Zara cardigan, with M&S knickers and John Lewis socks. I’m probably not what the OP means by ‘look nice’, but it’s my look and it works for me. I guess it depends who and what one is dressing for. My criteria are comfort, easy care, suited to a very active lifestyle, and suitable for walking, the tube, Teams meetings, theatre, drinks and a meal in the evening. If I’m being formal, I wear tailored tweed trousers (also Zara), a cream M&S T shirt and a ruinously expensive jacket from Welligogs.

I seem to have acquired quite a collection of dresses from Roman (online). They can be a bit hit and miss and I've had to send a few back, but they have a really wide range of different styles.

I hate this idea that your age defines what you wear! I follow the Elegant Stylist on Insta; she’s 60 and really doesn’t let age define her.

I wear a lot of vintage. I buy and sell on Vinted, operating a strict ‘one year’ policy. I used to wear a lot of Kemi Telford; elasticated waists, pockets etc. Recently I’ve been selling these, and opting for vintage 80s. The padded shoulders and nipped in waists suit my pear shape. I also wear a lot of black with a pop of leopard, like a bag, shoes or waistcoat.

I do have a collection of really great coats; mostly vintage. They really define my outfits in the autumn and winter.

I'm 46, so not quite the same age, but I really love matalan in the summer, primark for winter. I live near a designer outlet, and I do like joules, although some of their clothes look so dated and dull now, but good quality. I also like tog 24, and occasional bits from new look. I used to live in next clothing, but I find it a poor fit and never see anything that catches my eye. I also like fat face and superdry. I like zara clothing, but always feel fat shamed in there as nothing seems to fit!. I'm a 12/14.

M&S, John Lewis, Seasalt, Next. I like plain colours, muted prints, black, blue, grey, dark red, must be natural fibres.

Mostly Hobbs, Ghost, Reiss, Phase8, White Stuff for day to day. I bought most of my “dressy” occasion clothes from LK Bennet, I haven’t found an alternative since they’ve gone.

Vinted mainly! M&S, ASOS, H&M, Nobody’s Child, Uniqlo, Muji
